TEXT - Text Field
Plain English
Draws a text field at the specified position. You choose the font, rotation, and enlargement multipliers. TSPL combines position, font, and text data in a single command — unlike SBPL which uses separate commands for each.
When to use
Whenever you need to print text on the label. This is the primary text command in TSPL.
